    List of Ingredients




    Healthy Cherry Tomato Salad with Roasted Garlic Vinaigrette

    1 bulb garlic
    splash of olive oil
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
    salt to taste
    freshly ground black pepper
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    4 tablespoons chicken stock
    1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
    1 teaspoon freshly chopped tarragon
    2 pints fresh cherry tomatoes, rinsed

    Recipe



    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

    2. Slice off the top of the garlic bulb, just enough to barely expose the garlic inside each clove. Place the bulb in an ovenproof dish and drizzle with olive oil. Place the dish, uncovered, in the oven and cook the garlic until it is golden brown and soft, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.

    3. When the roasted garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze the pulp from 6 of the cloves and mash with a mortar and pestle, or with a fork.

    4. Put the garlic in a food processor and add the mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper and puree.

    5. Slowly add the olive oil and stock through the feed tube, and puree until the vinaigrette is creamy.

    6. Add the shallots and tarragon. Adjust the salt and pepper to taste.

    7. Gently toss the tomatoes in the vinaigrette.
